What problem does it solve? Working with PDFs often fails on layout fidelity: text extraction loses structure, generated documents render with clipped text or broken tables, and defects go unnoticed until delivery. This Skill provides a workflow for reading, generating, and visually validating PDFs so the final output is polished and correct. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Visual PDF Review: Render pages to PNGs with Poppler's pdftoppm and inspect alignment, spacing, and legibility before delivery. - Programmatic PDF Generation: Create new documents with reportlab while maintaining consistent typography, margins, and section hierarchy. - Text Extraction and Checks: Use pdfplumber or pypdf for text extraction and quick content checks without relying on them for layout fidelity. - Use Case: Generate a multi-page report PDF with charts and tables, render every page to images, and verify there are no overlapping elements, broken tables, or unreadable glyphs before sending it to stakeholders. ## Quick Start Use the pdf skill to create a formatted PDF report from my notes and render each page so we can visually verify the layout.
